During the ceremony, a wreath will be hung on the memorial wall to the sound of a bugler playing taps. Additionally, Sheriff Al Lamberti, and others, are scheduled to speak about the officer and deputies.

The tragic stories of the fallen men were highly publicized in media reports.

Deputy Patrick Behan has been on patrol for the Sheriff's Office for only two weeks when he was killed in November of 1990. The killer fired a single shot at Behan's head while Behan was writing a shoplifting report outside a Pembroke Park convenience store.

In November of 2006, Deputy Brian Tephford had been working a special detail, helping to keep a condo community safe at night, when he and Deputy Corey Carbocci, whom he'd called for backup, were attacked with gunfire. Tephford was killed and Carbocci was seriously wounded.

And Deputy Paul Rein was transporting an inmate from a Pompano Beach Jail to court in November of 2007 when officials say, the prisoner, Michael Mazza, overpowered him, shot him and escaped in a transport van.
